Welcome to Thames Future Ready Programs, designed for students seeking to elevate their career prospect or explore passion beyond their primary field of study. Our collaborative initiatives between the schools and centers offer an array of intensive certificate programs, including the Global Citizenship Program (GCP), Business Creation and Entrepreneurship Program (BCEP), Digital Proficiency Program (DPP), and Advance Information Technology Program (AITP).
Hop on the wagon with us towards your professional advancement and personal growth. While engaging in the most academically rigorous courses, you will also have the opportunity to study alongside peers from many different disciplines within the campus.
We envision Thames International College as a dialogic space where an individual learns to understand oneself and establish a deep connection with the larger world. The Global Citizenship Program takes an interdisciplinary approach to promote global awareness, cross-cultural understanding and a sense of responsibility towards global problems. While the goal looks lofty and unattainable, shouldering the responsibility of taking the necessary steps is the beginning of it. For the same, Academic Affairs have decided to take the program as a rubric that incorporates different courses on issues that identify as significantly pressing and timely: i) connected world histories; ii) wars, climate crises, and refugees; iii) indigeneity and its complexities; iv) human and non-human connections.
